 Posted: 09/10/04 - 11:35 Post subject: You have never been in love...
First Of The Gang To Die
You have never been in love
until you've seen the stars
reflect in the reservoirs
And you have never been in love
until you've seen the dawn rise
behind the home for the blind
We are the pretty petty thieves
and you're standing on our streets
where Hector was the
first of the gang with a gun in his hand
and the first to do time
the first of the gang to die
Such a silly boy
Hector was the first of the gang
with a gun in his hand
and the first to do time
the first of the gang to die
Oh my
You haven never been in love
until you've seen the sunlight thrown
over smashed human bone
We are the pretty petty thieves
and you're standing on our streets
where Hector was the first of the gang
with a gun in his hand
and the first to do time
the first of the gang to die
Oh my
Hector was the first of the gang
with a gun in his hand
and a bullet in his gullet
and the first lost lad
under the sod
And he stole from the rich and the poor
and the not very rich and the very poor
and he stole all hearts away
He stole all hearts away
He stole all hearts away
Away...
He stole all hearts away
Away...
He stole all hearts away
Away...
He stole all hearts away
Away...

Morrissey.
They play it all the time on www.xpn.org, which by the way, offers streaming to it's displaced listeners.

Has Morrissey ever had a happy thought?
Wait, never mind. I forgot that serious musicians suffer from a lonely pain that no mere artless mortal could ever comprehend. 
I do like The Smiths, though.

Thank you for the link. I am sick of hearing one radio station that plays Jimmy Buffet and old rock music constantly. (There is nothing wrong with old rock, just not 24-7. Thank god for Music Choice and links like this.)
